[Intro 1]
[C]
[C5][C]

[Verse 1]
[C5]Hiked [C]up to Sydney in
the week be[C5]fore Christmas
It was thirty-eight
[C]degrees degrees [C5]in the shade
[C]I bought a second-hand Morris
[C5]Morris for a cheap two-twenty
And An[C]d I drove it [C5]down to Ad[C]elaide
[C5]She [C]boil[F]ed for an hour
twenty miles out of Euston
I [C]thought that it would never end
But I knew I'd be home [C5]for
[C]Christmas [C5]with my Sandy
And a [F]few extra [Em]dollars
[Dm]to spend[C5][Am]
[G]I'm home and

[Verse 2]
[G]broken
[F]hearted
[G]Well I've been pas[C]ted
to the telephone
When [Am]Boxing Day [Em]break [F]was wasted
sitting [G]here on my [C]own
[G]The beer we bought for Christmas
ran dry this [F]afternoon
And [G]on the [C]radio it's New Year's Eve
What a [Dm]low down [Em]time of [F]the year
to pack your [G]luggage [C]and leave
Well I drove [C5]it to

[Verse 3]
the buyer
just as [C]fast as I could [C5]go
I was talking to his teenage [C]son
I sure hope it lasted for
the [C5]poor little bastard
[C]At least until he'd had[C5] some[C] fun[C5]
[C]I c[F]aught a taxi home
with great anticipation
Thinkin' [C]all you [C5]have to do is try
There was a note propped up against
the dressing table [C]mirror
[F]"Dear Jimmy, it's [Em]over,
[D5]good[D]bye!"[C]
[Am][G][F][Em][Dm]

[Verse 4]
[C][Am]
[G]I'm home and broken hearted
[F]Well I'v[G]e been pas[C]ted
to the telephone
When [Am]Boxing Day [Em]break [F]was wasted
sitting [G]here [C]on my own
The beer [G]we bought for Christmas
ran dry [F]this after[G]noon
And on the [C]radio it's New Year's Eve
What a [Dm]low down [Em]time of the year t[F]o
pack your [G]luggage [Am]and leave

[Verse 5]
[Am]Yeah
[F]Don't leave me [G]pain

[Verse 6]
I went to [D]a party,
tried to drink myself happy
[D5]The steaks were washed away in t[D]he rain
[D5]Fin [D]ished up in bed with
an old acquaintance
She'll [C]never be my friend again
And [G]everyone was asking
me where's the [Am]little woman
[D]Rolled home before the rain
[Dm]could stop[D]
And I've been sitting [Dm]for days reading
[C]pre-Christmas papers
papers
With my [G]heels on the [F#m]table-top
[Em]I'm [D]I'm

[Verse 7]
[Am]home and broken hearted
[G]Well I've been pas[D]ted

When [Bm]Boxing Day [F#m]break [G]was wasted
sitting [Am]here on my own
[D]Oh the beer [Am]we bought for Christmas
ran dry this af[G]ternoon
[Am]On the r[D]adio it's New Year's Eve
What a [Em]low down [F#m]time of the ye[G]ar
